The Grizzlies are fully in tank mode... Shane will lock down Rudy Gay yet again and we should cruise to victory. Denver will provide a better test as to what we can do without Yao.

I think Landry and Scola might start. Although it would be hilarious to see Dike stuff Milicic about 5 times in the first couple of minutes. Darko is so bad. How did he ever go 2nd after LEBRON in the 03 draft?

This is a game the Rockets must win. Griz is one of the weakest teams in the league. You need to play teams like that in order to increase playoff points.

Well 1st of all a WIN, 14th straight and a perfect month for us.

But this game may have 2 different scenarios:

1) Easy lead, easy win, Rockets control the game since the begginin', great defense, something like Wizards' game. Game where Tracy doesn't really step up and doesn't have a big scorin' night.

2) Tough, close game for both teams. Points for points. Game when we need to be carefull and game when Tracy needs to really step up and has a big scorin' night.

Anyway a WIN, I hope for a great game for Tracy.

Come on Rockets, T-Mac !

This is a game where i just dont see us winning. The grizz are just too good of a team! right now they're playing with full confidence, and playing with their hearts out. expect milicic to drop 57 pts. on us.

rockets - 178
grizzlies - 58

P.S.

Ride the snake.

And I agree with everything else you said except I think the score will be a bit closer. Just a bit though.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

Even without Yao, we should win.

Let's close out a perfect February!
We have met the enemy, and he is us.

Yeah lets top this out with a win 14 in a row, and a perfect February. We need some of these teams in the top 6 to lose a game tonight if they do I think were either tied or take 6th place, should be nice lol.

EDIT: SA vs. Dallas tonight, go Spurs, we need the Mavs to lose this one, so if we win, we are tied for 6th place. Damn it feels good to see the Mavs down in the standings.
